SERIAL NO.____________________________________
WARNING :
TO REDUCE THE RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK DO NOT REMOVE COVER (OR BACK). NO USER SERVICEABLE PARTS INSIDE. REFER SERVICING TO QUALIFIED SERVICE PERSONNEL.
The lightning flash with arrowhead symbol, within an equilateral triangle, is intended to alert the user to the presence of uninsulated “dangerous voltage” within the product’s enclosure that may be of sufficient magnitude to constitute a risk of electric shock to persons.
The exclamation point within an equilateral triangle is intended to alert the user to the pres­ence of important operating and maintenance (servicing) instructions in the literature accom­panying the appliance.
WARNING :
TO PREVENT FIRE OR SHOCK HAZARDS, DO NOT EXPOSE THIS PRODUCT TO RAIN OR MOISTURE.
NOTE TO CABLE/TV INSTALLER:
This reminder is provided to call the cable TV system installer’s attention to Article 820-40 of the National Electric Code (U.S.A.). The code provides guidelines for proper grounding and, in particular, specifies that the cable ground shall be connected to the grounding system of the building, as close to the point of the cable entry as practical.

7. Accessories
Do not place this product on an unstable cart, stand, tripod, bracket, or table. The product may fall, causing serious injury to a child or adult, and serious damage to the product. Use only with a cart, stand, tripod, bracket, or table rec­ommended by the manufacturer, or sold with the product. Any mounting of the product should fol­low the manufacturer’s instructions, and should use a mounting accessory recommended by the manufacturer.
8. Transporting Product
A product and cart combination should be moved with care. Quick stops, excessive force, and uneven surfaces may cause the product and cart combination to overturn.
9. Attachments
Do not use attachments not recommended by the product manufacturer as they may cause hazards.
10. Ventilation
Slots and openings in the cabinet are provided for ventilation and to ensure reliable operation of the product and to protect it from overheating, and these openings must not be blocked or cov­ered. The openings should never be blocked by placing the product on a bed, sofa, rug, or other similar surface. This product should not be placed in a built-in installation such as a book­case or rack unless proper ventilation is provid­ed or the manufacturer’s instructions have been adhered to.

14. Outdoor Antenna Grounding
If an outside antenna or cable system is con­nected to the product, be sure the antenna or cable system is grounded so as to provide some protection against voltage surges and built-up static charges. Article 810 of the National Electrical Code (U.S.A.), ANSI/ NFPA70 pro­vides information with regard to proper ground­ing of the mast and supporting structure, grounding of the lead-in wire to an antenna dis­charge unit, size of grounding conductors, loca­tion of antenna-discharge unit, connection to grounding electrodes, and requirements for the grounding electrode.
Example of Grounding According to National Electrical Code Instructions
NEC - National Electrical Code
15. Lightning
For added protection for this product (receiver) during a lightning storm, or when it is left unat­tended and unused for long periods of time, unplug it from the wall outlet and disconnect the antenna or cable system. This will prevent dam­age to the product due to lightning and power­line surges.
16. Power Lines
An outside antenna system should not be locat­ed in the vicinity of overhead power lines or other electric light or power circuits, or where it can fall into such power lines or circuits. When installing an outside antenna system, extreme care should be taken to keep from touching such power lines or circuits as contact with them might be fatal.
17. Overloading
Do not overload wall outlets and extension cords as this can result in a risk of fire or electric shock.
18. Object and Liquid Entry
Never push objects of any kind into this product through openings as they may touch dangerous voltage points or short-out parts that could result in a fire or electric shock. Never spill liquid of any kind on the product.
19. Servicing
Do not attempt to service this product yourself as opening or removing covers may expose you to dangerous voltage or other hazards. Refer all servicing to qualified service personnel.
20. Damage Requiring Service
Unplug this product from the wall outlet and refer servicing to qualified service personnel under the following conditions:
a. If the power-supply cord or plug is damaged. b. If liquid has been spilled, or objects have fall-
en into the product.
c. If the product has been exposed to rain or
water.
d. If the product does not operate normally by following the operating instructions. Adjust only those controls that are covered by the operating instructions as an improper adjustment of other controls may result in damage and will often require extensive work by a qualified technician to restore the product to its normal operation.
e. If the product has been dropped or the cabi­net has been damaged.
f. If the product exhibits a distinct change in performance.
21. Replacement Parts
When replacement parts are required, be sure the service technician has used replacement parts specified by the manufacturer or have the same characteristics as the original part. Unauthorized substitutions may result in fire, electric shock, or other hazards.
22. Safety Check

Closed caption function
Closed captioning is a process which converts the audio portion of a television program into written words which then appear on the television screen in a form similar to subtitles. Closed captions allow viewers to read the dia­logue and narration of television programs.
Using Closed Captions
Captions are the subtitles of the dialogue and narration of televi­sion programs. For prerecorded programs, program dialogue can be arranged into captions in advance. It’s possible to caption a live program by using a process called real-time captioning, which creates captions instantly. Real-time captioning is normally done by professional reporters using a machine shorthand system and computer for translation into English.
FOLLOW ME
Caption Tips
• Not all TV broadcasts include closed caption signals.
• Sometimes TV stations broadcast four different caption signals on the same channel. By selecting From
CC1 to CC4 Another mode might show demonstration or programming information.
• Your TV might not receive caption signals normally in the following situations. Poor reception conditions are encountered:
IGNITION: Picture may flutter, drift, suffer from black spots or horizontal streaking. Usually caused by interference from automobile ignition systems, neon lamps, electrical drills, and other electrical appliances.
GHOSTS: Ghosts are caused when the TV signal splits and follows two paths. One is the direct path and the other is reflected off tall buildings, hills or other objects. Changing the direction or position of the antenna may improve reception.
SNOW: If your receiver is located at the weak, fringe area of a TV signal, your picture may be marred by small dots. It may be necessary to install a special antenna to improve the picture.
An old, bad, or illegally recorded tape is played. Strong, random signals from a car or airplane interfere with the TV signal. The signal from the antenna is weak. The program wasn’t captioned when it was produced, transmitted, or taped.
, you can choose which signal you view. CC1 is usually the signal with the captions, while
Captioning is an effective system for the hearing-impaired, and it can also aid in teaching language skills.
• The picture at left shows a typical caption.
